For Week Six, you are to submit a rough draft that is related to the ‘approved title’ of your research proposal that you submitted in Week Two, and the annotated bibliography you turned in during Week Four. The rough draft should have at least 1000 words of substance, not counting the cover and reference pages. Be sure to include a Cover page, abstract, and a list of references with your draft.  

Review the Parts of a Research Paper [content] located in the Week One lesson section of the course. Your paper should include the following: 

• Cover Page/Title Page
• Abstract (100-120 words)
• Introduction
• Hypothesis/Problem Statement/Purpose Statement
• Literature Review and Definitions included in the research
• Research methods/design
• References
• Appendices – as needed (annotated bibliography, example consent form, example survey if used)

Note: The research proposal you write in this course will not be sent to the IRB for approval because you will not be conducting actual research for the purpose of the class. You will, however, gain insight as to how to write a research proposal.

• Submit a Word document of your rough draft that is relevant to the approved title of your Week Eight research proposal.
  • Include at least 1000 words of substance in the draft, not counting the cover and reference pages.
